Today Ana Kate celebrated her 3rd birthday and went to her first day of pre-school. She was super excited when I woke her up and reminded her what today was. She was running around saying, " I was 2, but now I'm 3!" I can't believe my baby girl is 3...how did that happen? And going to pre-school! You can definitely see the difference that a year has made in her, it always amazes me how much kids learn in the first 3 years. I will do a post later this week with her 3 year update.

As I was getting her dressed for school (which is at our church) we had the following conversation:

Ana Kate: Will we sing songs at school?
Me: I'm not sure.
Ana Kate: Maybe I'll ask God. God, will we sing songs at school today?
Me: What did He say?
Ana Kate: I think he said yes.

And yes...they did sing songs at school. : )

She ran right into her classroom when we got there and started telling her teacher she was 3 today. Her teachers were wonderful! When I picked her up they were telling me how funny she was. I also got a note of what she did today and the comments said she has a spunky personality. So it went really well. She also took a short nap at school. I took cupcakes for her class and they loved them! When I asked her how she like school she said, " I loved it!" So a great start to a hopefully great year! Yay!

Trying to get a 1st day of school picture, but she wouldn't face the camera.

I made dinner for everyone and Mimi came over. Then after dinner Ana Kate opened Whitney & Josh's presents and was super excited. They got her 3 DVDs that she wanted and a coloring book, and stickers.

Photos for her birthday aren't great because I had to use a flash since we were inside. I'm planning to try and take 3 year photos of her soon....if she'll cooperate.

Oh...I also want to say Happy Birthday to my friend Amanda who shares Ana Kate's birthday. I hope you had a wonderful day Amanda!

The card Whitney gave her played a song from Litte Mermaid and she had to have it in her pictures.
